TransNexus/ POPstar Clearinghouse Service Agreement

This Master Clearinghouse  Service Agreement (the "Agreement") is made this 20th
day of September,  2000 by and between,  POPstar Global  Communications  Inc., a
business entity organized as an international business company under the laws of
the British Virgin Islands, ("POPstar"), and TransNexus, Inc., a business entity
organized  as a  corporation  under the laws of the State of  Delaware,  U.S.A.,
("TransNexus").

Recitals

POPstar  intends  to  establish  an  Internet  Protocol  ("IP")   communications
clearinghouse  service to enable IP  communication  service  providers acting as
"Originators" to transmit IP  communications  to other IP communication  service
providers  acting as a "Terminator."  POPstar has selected  TransNexus,  Inc. to
operate the  Clearinghouse  services on its behalf as the POPstar  Clearinghouse
Service's  independent,  and third  party  settlement  agency.  TransNexus  will
provide  the  services  set forth in Section 1 (the  "Services")  to the POPstar
Clearinghouse  Service.  The  clearinghouse  described in this Agreement will be
known as the POPstar Clearinghouse Service (the "Clearinghouse").

In exchange for providing the Services,  TransNexus  will receive  service fees.
TransNexus  will also be reimbursed  for all expenses  incurred on behalf of the
Clearinghouse,   including  banking  fees,  device  enrollment  fees  and  other
expenses, as set forth in the Agreement. In exchange for providing clearinghouse
services,  POPstar will receive service fees, including price arbitrage,  and or
other such fees as defined by POPstar, as set forth in this agreement.

A glossary of certain terms used in this Agreement is set forth in Attachment 1.
Attachment 1 and the other attachments (and any amendments thereto) are integral
parts of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference.

NOW,  THEREFORE,  IN  CONSIDERATION  OF THE MUTUAL  AGREEMENTS  CONTAINED HEREIN
POPSTAR AND TRANSNEXUS AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

1    Services

1.1  TransNexus  will  operate  the  Clearinghouse  Service  for  POPstar  on an
     outsourced basis. TransNexus will enroll the Clearinghouse Customers in the
     POPstar  Clearinghouse  Service after the customers  have complied with the
     terms and conditions and executed the POPstar Partner  Services  Agreement.
     Prior  to  exchanging  commercial  traffic  via the  POPstar  Clearinghouse
     Service,  each  Clearinghouse  Customer must certify they have successfully
     completed a Clearinghouse Service audit test required by TransNexus.

1.2  TransNexus  will  maintain a  Clearinghouse  Service  Provider  account for
     POPstar.  This  account  will monitor the sum of service fees earned by the
     POPstar  Clearinghouse  and any  transfers  of cash from or to the  POPstar
     Clearinghouse Account.

1.3  TransNexus  will  maintain  an account for each  Clearinghouse  Customer of
     POPstar  Clearinghouse  Service  that  will  monitor  the  activity  of the
     customer in the Clearinghouse  for the purpose of collecting  payments from
     the customer and making settlement  payments to the customer.  This account
     is  known  as  the  "Clearinghouse  Customer  Account."  The  Clearinghouse
     Customer Account is more fully described in Section 5.

1.4  TransNexus  will maintain the POPstar  Clearinghouse  in such a way that an
     Originator  customer  in  the  POPstar  Clearinghouse  Service  seeking  to
     exchange  traffic  will be able to query the  Clearinghouse  via the Public
     Internet,  or other IP network  defined by the  POPstar,  for a  Terminator
     participating in the  Clearinghouse  Service.  Upon receiving such a query,
     TransNexus  will securely  authenticate  the  communication  by returning a
     secure  token and up to 3 (three) IP addresses  of  Terminators  capable of
     completing the  communication  and the exchange of traffic.  The Originator
     will then contact the  Terminator to complete the call and both will return
     usage indications (call detail records) back to TransNexus.

1.5  For each connection between an Originator  customer and Terminator customer
     in the  Clearinghouse  Service,  TransNexus  will gather and assemble  call
     detail records ("CDRs").  The CDRs will detail the duration and other items
     concerning  each IP voice and fax  transmission.  TransNexus  will maintain
     detailed  clearinghouse  accounts for each customer and will  reconcile and
     rate CDRs for  activity  generated by IP  Communications  using the POPstar
     Clearinghouse Service.

1.6  TransNexus will collect funds on behalf of the POPstar  Clearinghouse  from
     Originator   customers  and  make   settlement   payments  to  the  POPstar
     Clearinghouse   or   Terminator   customers   on  behalf  of  the   POPstar
     Clearinghouse for IP communications in accordance with this Agreement.

1.7  POPstar will be responsible  for  establishing  and providing to TransNexus
     the rates that will  determine  the charge  per minute for  origination  or
     termination  communication  traffic  to any  destination  served by POPstar
     Clearinghouse  Service.  Rates must be provided by POPstar to TransNexus as
     detailed in Attachment 6 to this Agreement.  Rates will be effective within
     48 hours of receipt by TransNexus.  Origination rates and termination rates
     must be  established  by  POPstar  for each IP  telephony  device  of every
     Clearinghouse Customer.

1.8  TransNexus  will  undertake  reasonable  efforts to protect  the  identity,
     pricing and other confidential  Information of the Clearinghouse  Customers
     from  other  participants  in  the  POPstar   Clearinghouse   Service.  All
     Clearinghouse Customers of the POPstar Clearinghouse

     industry shows and referrals of potential customers.  TransNexus will brand
     all POPstar  Clearinghouse  Service Web User  Interface  pages  viewable by
     POPstar and its customers with the POPstar logo.

     payment to POPstar.

4    POPstar Clearinghouse Accounts

4.1  TransNexus will establish a POPstar  Clearinghouse Service Provider Account
     for the purpose of  aggregating  and  monitoring  the monetary value of any

4.4  Each time POPstar  originates an IP  communication  as an  Originator,  the
     POPstar Clearinghouse Customer Account will be debited with the appropriate
     rate for IP communication,  service charges and transaction expenses.  Each
     time POPstar  terminates an IP communication  as a Terminator,  the POPstar
     Clearinghouse  Customer  Account will be credited with the appropriate rate

     payments  to  the  POPstar   Clearinghouse  Service  Provider  Account  and

     Customer a statement  detailing  actual  usage less advance  payments  plus
     banking  fees.  A new  deposit  amount  will be  calculated  based upon the
     previous  month's  actual use. The statement will indicate a net payment to
     or from POPstar and Clearinghouse Customers, which is to be paid by the 5th
     business day following invoice issuance.  TransNexus will issue payments to
     POPstar  and  Clearinghouse  Customers  on the day the  invoice  is sent if
     TransNexus owes amounts as calculated by the statement. In no event will an
     Originator's deposit amount be less than $1,000 USD.

5.2  Funds  provided by the POPstar to its  Clearinghouse  Customer  Account for
     origination  traffic will be held in a  restricted  cash account at Bank of

6    Service Charges

6.1  TransNexus  will collect from  Clearinghouse  Customers an Origination  Fee
     each time the Clearinghouse  Customer accesses the POPstar Clearinghouse as
     an Originator  Clearinghouse Customer. The amount of the origination fee is
     set forth on Attachment  5. This amount will be  calculated by  multiplying
     the length of the phone call in seconds times the  termination  rate/second
     times the  origination  fee percentage  listed in Attachment 5.  TransNexus
     reserves the right to charge an  unsuccessful  call query fee of $0.005 USD
     for every query made by a Clearinghouse  Customer.  This  unsuccessful call
     query  fee will be  invoked  by  TransNexus  in the  event a  Clearinghouse
     Customer abuses its query privilege.  TransNexus will provide POPstar seven
     days notice prior to the imposition of this fee.

6.2  TransNexus and POPstar reserve the right to change the fee schedule for the
     POPstar  Clearinghouse  Service  with  seven  days  notice in  writing  and
     acceptance by both parties.

7    Taxes

     providing this access monthly in advance.

     Registration.

2.   Security  deposits  must  be in the  form  of  cash  via  electronic  funds
     transfer.  These  security  deposits  will be held as  restricted  cash and
     deposited  with Bank of America  Georgia.  Each  customer will not have any
     right to  interest  earned on these  amounts.  TransNexus  may  require the
     amount to be adjusted to reflect  changes in the  customer's  actual billed
     amounts.

     The initial security deposit required is as follows:

     Net Originator Customers:
     $1,000 US Dollars

     Termination Only Customers:
     $0 US Dollars

     The deposit  amount is expected to cover a minimum of 10 days  activity for
     the customer.  After the end of the current  calendar  quarter of operation
     with POPstar Clearinghouse Service, the customer may be required to furnish
     additional  funds to  maintain  this 10 day  minimum.  In no event will the
     deposits  required be less than what is stated  above.  Deposits  are fully
     refundable,  less  banking and / or  outstanding  usage fees,  with 30 days
     written notice to POPstar Clearinghouse Service

     The  formula  to  calculate   deposit   requirements   for  Net  Originator
     Clearinghouse Customers is:

     (Expected  Originator  traffic  in  minutes  for the  past  month*  Average
     Origination  Fee per minute) - Net  Terminator  Revenue of Customer for the
     past month.

3.   It should be noted that current  financial  funds  transfer time around the
     world varies significantly.  To aid the customer and to avoid suspension of
     service,  TransNexus  has  developed  several  methods to assist  POPstar's
     Clearinghouse  customers in maintaining sufficient funds with TransNexus at
     all times.

3.1  Upon establishment of usage,  patterns TransNexus will provide the customer

     24.00 GMT the 15th)  and will be posted  via  e-mail by the 16th day of the
     current month.

3.2  TransNexus  will also establish a  Notification  limit of 10 days aggregate
     advance fees.  Once it is determined that the customer has ten or less days
     of advance fees,  TransNexus will automatically  generate an e-mail message
     to the primary and secondary  business  contact  providing  notification of
     needed funding.

3.3  TransNexus  will  pay by the 5th  business  day of the next  month  all net
     amounts owed to Clearinghouse  Customers and to the  Clearinghouse  Service
     Provider.

3.4  The Clearinghouse Customer's primary or appointed contact may monitor their
     account balances with POPstar Clearinghouse via the Web User Interface. The
     Clearinghouse Customer Account balance information will include Origination
     Fees and Termination  Fees associated with call detail records  received by
     the POPstar Clearinghouse within 60 minutes of the time of inquiry.

3.5  Pay in advance for a certain period's expected  origination prices. Net and
     Originator  only  customers  will  be  required  to  fund  advance  fees to
     TransNexus.

3.6  TransNexus provides the internal infrastructure  operations for the POPstar
     Clearinghouse  Service  for  voice  and  fax  communications.  Accordingly,
     TransNexus  expects to receive  remuneration for these services.  Also, the
     Terminator  Clearinghouse Customers expect to receive compensation from the
     POPstar  Clearinghouse  Service for  termination  of calls from  Originator
     Clearinghouse Customers.  Therefore, a basic description of fees charged by
     TransNexus to the POPstar Clearinghouse Service and Clearinghouse Customers
     is shown below:

3.7  TransNexus   Transaction  Fee:  For  each  IP   communication   transaction
     authorized   by  the  POPstar   Clearinghouse   Service,   the   Originator
     Clearinghouse   Customer  will  pay  an  Origination  Fee  to  the  POPstar
     Clearinghouse   for   authorization   and  call  routing  to  a  Terminator
     Clearinghouse  Customer who will complete the IP  communication.  The total
     Origination Fee is price per minute times the number of seconds (rounded to
     the nearest whole second) from start of the IP communication transaction to
     completion or termination of the IP  communication.  TransNexus will charge
     and collect the Origination Fee from the Originator  Clearinghouse Customer

     of charge to all POPstar Clearinghouse  Customers.  The response will be no

     amounts  will be  deducted  from  any  amounts  owed  to the  Clearinghouse
     customer,  or added to the amounts due from the Clearinghouse  Customers on
     the 1st day of the next month. As the statement will be sent electronically

TransNexus/POPstar Clearinghouse Service Agreement - Attachment 6

Instructions to Create Rate Plan File

General
This document  provides a set of instructions  for creating a set of rates to be
associated with each enrolled gateway.  A separate file must be created for each
combination of the following:

o    Device Name (Gateway ID)
o    Service Type (Voice vs. Fax)
o    Traffic Type (Originating vs. Terminating)

Thus,  a unique file of  originating  rates must be created for Device A that is
intended to originate  voice traffic.  If Device A is also intended to terminate
voice traffic, a separate file of terminating rates must be generated.

The  customer is required  to submit a CSV file.  Whether the file is  generated
using Excel or any other  spreadsheet/editor  is irrelevant to the  provisioning
system.  The  customer  is free to assign any file name to the CSV file,  but it
must follow the UNIX file naming convention.  Once created,  the CSV file should
be  e-mailed  to   [email protected].   The  e-mail   subject   must  be:
"provision:a:b:c:d"  where a is the customer  (subscriber)  ID, b is the gateway
ID, c is the service type and d is the traffic type.
For example:  provision:1234567890:209999999:V:T

Rate Plan File Validation
During TransNexus processing,  the rate plan file will be rejected if any of the
following validations are not met.

1.   If Zone is entered,  there can be no values in columns B (Country Code) and
     C (City Code/NPA-NXX).
2.   If Zone is not entered, there must be a value in column B (Country Code).
3.   If  Country  Code is  entered,  there  may be a  value  in  column  C (City
     Code/NPA-NXX).
4.   If City Code/NPA-NXX is entered, there must be a value in column B (Country
     Code).
5.   Maximum sum of combined digits in columns B and C is 7.
6.   The row  preceding the first row of rates must include the label "BEGIN" in
     column A.
7.   The row  following  the last row of rates must  include  the label "END" in
     column A. (This is  interpreted to be the end of the file.)
8.   At least one row in the rate section must have a Zone value of "OT".  (This
     is a catch-all  zone that includes a rate for all Called Number Strings not
     specifically defined. If you wish to only define rates for specified Called
     Number Strings, then the "OT" row should include a value of "N" in column J
     (Allow)).
9.   There may be multiple  rows with the same Called  Number  String as long as
     the Begin  Dates are  different  and one of the Begin  Dates is equal to or
     less than the date/time the file is submitted to TransNexus for processing.
10.  For each Called Number String,  there must be at least one row with a Begin
     Date  equal  to or  less  than  the  date/time  the  file is  submitted  to
     TransNexus  for  processing.
11.  For each Called  Number  String row where Allow  equals "Y",  there must be
     values in columns D, E, F and G.
12.  For each Called Number  String row where Allow equals "N",  there must be a
     value in column G.
13.  Rates may not include more than 4 decimal places.
14.  The  combination of Customer  (Subscriber)  ID, Device ID,  Currency ID and
     Traffic Type is valid.

--------
(1) This is a listing of predefined regions for your convenience in setting up a
single rate for a grouping of countries.  For example, in the rate plan file you
can create one rate row for AF  (Africa)  and  separate  rate rows for Egypt and
Libya.  All  countries in the Africa region would inherit the rate for AF except
Egypt and Libya.  This  prevents  having to create  multiple  rows for  multiple
countries  in the same zone with the same rate.  Please note these lists may not
include the latest and most accurate E.164 country  codes.  The customer has the
responsibility  to refer to ITU  (www.itu.ch)  for accurate  country codes.  Any
countries  not included in these lists are not  considered  part of a predefined
region,  and the number  string will have to be defined in the Country  Code and
City Code/NPA-NXX columns of the rate plan file.
